Nice man, I didn't think anyone would get this off the ground, the Photobooth thread!

[traffordbrown]

Yes. Finally. I look forward to this thread developing.

[traffordbrown]

Are we including ANY personal pics in here? Be it match day photos, photos at home etc...?

[Jayrannasaurus]

Please yes, there are so many of you guys that are lucky enough to go to the stadium regularly, post whatever you're able.

Pub photos, whatever seems interesting I guess, It probably doesn't even have to be football or United related if we're being honest, though most will likely revolve around footy I rate!

Will be a great way to enrich the forum too.

[traffordbrown]

Awesome. I'll try to scan in some of my old photos later. I feel they're worth sharing.

Here's one I had on my phone.

Took it at the match at Reading in December. Wazza just taking a corner. Went alone and was sat in with the home fans - but still ended up with United fans either side of me!

Haha, that's mint Traff!

Here's a few from pre-season if anyone's interested-

View from the top of Holmenkollbakken - a large ski jumping hill just outside Oslo (you can see Oslo down in the middle by the water):


The Costa Luminosa docked by Akershus Fortress in Olso - The Luminosa is owned by the same crowd that owned the Concordia:


The United Tour Bus outside the Ullevaal Stadium:

Outside the Ullevi Stadium in Gothenburg:


The temporary stands erected behind the goals in the Ullevi - it held fine, but seemed a bit flimsy at times:

Outside the AWD-Arena (Hannover 96). Built with parkland around it, you would barely know its there. Loads of outdoor bars and facilities for fans built around it too:

Awesome additions SET, really fantastic the variety of places you've followed United to.

[jimbonda]

loving your work twinny. i bet there's nowt like a united pre-season

[traffordbrown]

Alright! Now this thread is really up and running. Love it.

Pre-season was a great laugh - places you never usually get to go to, bit of a holiday when its abroad and a chance to meet fellow reds from other places.

Got chatting to a couple Faroe Islands reds in a bar in Gothenburg who had spent about 10/12 hours travelling to see the game.

Oslo was very expensive! Bout a tenner a pint in some places. Luckily we know a few of the Norwegian Reds and they took us to better places.

Went through about €3k for 11 days away on the preseason though - that was flight to Oslo, accomodation and spending, travel to Gothenburg from Oslo, accomodation & spending, then travel to England and a group of us drove from MK to Hannover.

Planning on doing a few of the reserves/youth friendlies this summer - chance to see a few more lower division grounds

Few years ago I won a competition on Manutd.com to go to Old Trafford and meeting the "Legends of '68". F***ing great day, it was. I didn't actually know which players would be attending, so I was well chuffed when it turned out to be Stepney, Paddy, Sir Bobby and Kiddo.

I was a student at the time. Paddy asked me what I was studying. I answered "history", so he asked: "Tell me, young man... what year was the Battle of Bannockburn?" I had no idea, and he proceeded to rip the piss out of me in front of about 100 people. A very proud moment for me.

Brian Kidd makes me feel very uneasy.
